I have witnessed humidity problems on fitness centers, lacking fresh air. You may be able to run one compressor fine without oil return problems.
Contact the manufacturer to verify. Also, have the manufacturer engineer a way to downsize the tonnage..
I would be concerned long term for that unit if it is that oversized.

There are many days where there is low/no cooling loads yet the outdoor dew points are above the acceptable indoor dew points. Plus the moistue the occupants add to the total moisture that must be removed. Over-cooling lowers the indoor temp which in turn increases the amount of moisture that must be removed to maintain low %RH. Supplemental dehumidification by high efficiency dehumidifier like the Ultra-Aire/Santa Fe/Hi-E Dry/Quest are a long term solution to provide ideal temp/%RH.
